Join us for an introduction to the Park's diverse tree collection Walk through the Oriental and Lotus Gardens to see and learn about over
40 varieties of trees, from a giant white oak (Quercus alba, the state tree of Connecticut) to a dwarf mugo pine (Pinus mugo, from alpine Europe),
as well as one of the park's newest trees, a Causasian wingnut (Pterocarya fraxinifolia - we'll sort out that Latin name!).

If the weather cooperates, the Japanese snowbell (Styrax japonicus) and native fringetrees (Chionanthus virginicus) should be in full bloom.
Come to enjoy an easy stroll and learn about the trees' names, where they grow wild, their uses and folklore.

Sponsored by the Central Regional Tourism District, Wickham Park is included in the 3 day event featuring Connecticuts loveliest gardens.
The historical tour is from 2:00 PM until 3:30 PM and provided by the park director.

Throughout its season, Wickham Park hosts a multitude of weddings and photo sessions that are pre-arranged by
reservation. Please assist us in keeping the day special for the newlyweds by respecting their privacy
in the reserved areas.

 Local high school tennis teams use the park for weekday practices and matches.
